Preschool and Kindergarten Round-up At Our Savior

Our Savior Evangelical Lutheran School will hold its Early Childhood Roundup

on Tuesday, March 12 at 5:30 p.m. All interested upcoming Preschool and Kindergarten

students and their parents are invited to attend to receive information, experience

programs, and meet with teachers and the principal of Our Savior.

 

The evening will begin with pizza and light refreshments at 5:30 p.m. and will

be followed with classroom visits and information for parents. Eligible students need to

be age three, four, or five by September 1, 2013 to qualify for 3 year old Preschool, Pre-

Kindergarten and Kindergarten respectfully.

 

The goal of the Early Childhood program is to provide a Christ-centered,

balanced academic curriculum that is developmentally appropriate and establishes a

foundation that will build to the next grade level, according to Andrea Johnson, principal

“Each program is specifically structured to be age appropriate as well as learning

focused,” said Johnson. “We provide training in literacy, mathematics, and moral

development at all levels.”

 

The Kindergarten program includes instruction in reading and literacy,

mathematics, social studies, science, religion, computers and community awareness.

Classes are kept small to sustain greater individualized instruction and a nurturing

environment. Parents are encouraged to assist in classroom activities. The class

convenes weekdays 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. For parents and students interested in a full

day at school, childcare and enrichment programs are also available.

The Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten programs expose children to the written

language on a daily basis, stresses both listening and speaking skills, provides literacy

activities, and develops math skills. Play is also an integral part of the curriculum

to build self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-control while providing social and

developmental experiences necessary for a healthy attitude towards school.
